This is the Best LYNYRD SKYNYRD Song Ever! (…It’s not Freebird) | FIRST TIME REACTION!

[@koltonk2713]

Alex explaining the lyrics to Andy at the end was priceless! Also, yeah that is some grade A “deep in the sauce” to block out the lyrics to this one. They add so much to the sauce, though. Let this be a lesson, Young Andrew.

[@green_ban]

The "I'll give you a gold star if you need it" killed me.

[@skroy8671]

Ha! It was funny the way his eyes bugged out when he actually knew what the lyrics were about!

[@dimedraweriv258]

One of my least favorite Skynyrd songs lol. Definitely not up there with there best

[@valazuniga]

Andy really cracked me up when he finally got the story.😂😂😂 It's what makes this song so great. The lyrics and vocals of the music paints a great picture of a real life situation that some have actually found themselves in. You hear it and feel it, and can imagine yourself being there seeing it unfold.

[@alan73795]

I also enjoyed that part of video immensely. In Andy's defense, I often listen to new songs in the same way, i.e., I don't always pay attention to the lyrics first, but intake the vocals as part of the entire sound design. After that, I start to appreciate the lyrics, drum fills, guitar riffs and other components that make a song memorable.

[@tessasingsschell7174]

OoooOoooOooOooo....Mr. Breeze 🎶🎸

[@LoriannSmithsanpell]

According to Skynyrd: "This song is based on a true story. As Skynyrd guitarist Gary Rossington tells it, lead singer Ronnie Van Zant, who was about 18 at the time, used a fake ID to get in a bar while his younger bandmates Rossington and Allen Collins waited for him in a truck. Van Zant danced with a girl named Linda, whose boyfriend, who was not too happy about it, came up to Ronnie and reached for something in his boot. Figuring he was going for a gun, Van Zant told him: "If you're going to shoot me it's going to be in the ass or the elbows... just gimme a few steps and I'll be gone." He ran to the truck, and he, Rossington, and Collins wrote this song that night."

[@buckeyechad1]

I know it was back in like '90 when I heard that interview with Gary. But didn't he say Ronnie wrote the lyrics in the back seat of the car on the ride home?

[@LoriannSmithsanpell]

@@buckeyechad1 the article didn't mention where the lyrics were written, but in the car on the way home would make a whole Lotta sense; especially after an experience like that! 👍

[@kevinostberg1729]

Whether or not it is true, it sure makes for a great story; and an even greater song.

[@Nemesis7475]

I’d throw in Simple Man, What’s Your Name and Tuesday’s Gone as definitive Skynyrd as well.

Saturday Night Special is another great one, especially the way it starts with a wall of sound. That Smell has one of the great Skynyrd lines in - Whisky bottles and brand new cars, oak tree you're in my way...

[@heartfanjim01]

I got tired of Freeborn. Simple Man and On The Hunt are my favorites. Allan's solo on Freebird iconic,especially live. He really cuts loose live on that solo. I remember Ronnie had to go rein him in at Knebworth in '76. He was out on the tounge part of the Stones stage. He would have gone on forever.

This song always makes me laugh a little. Besides being a good little ditty, theres some truth behind it. Guitarist Gary Rossington wrote the lyrics about being in a bar in Jacksonville. Ronnie was caught dancing with another man's woman, and had a gun pointed at him. Classic Skynyrd story. Classic Ronnie.🤤

"I Know a Little" is a great song. The guitar work is off the chain. It's one of my favorite LS tunes because it's kinda fun, in theme. "That Smell" is one of the best rock songs ever produced. It's more dark and foreboding. Guitar solos for miles.

“I know a little” is an excellent choice!

The opening solo of "I Know a Little" was the first Skynyrd riff I learned when I got serious about playing guitar - it's a real bitch to master, but it's so damn fun to play once you do.

[@wallacegrommet9343]

Second that on I Know a Little!

[@rebo2610]

I Know a Little might be my favorite...

[@lantose]

Great song, but you’ve got to hear “Call Me The Breeze” which is one of their greatest hits and written by the infamous JJ Cale, which has a great solo by Gary Rossington and an unforgettable piano sole by the late Billy Powell! On another note you mentioned similarities of Joe Walsh, which I highly recommend a mid-80’s song he wrote (while dating Stevie Nicks) called “The Confessor”! An incredible song full of meaning in a time of a transition in his life and includes a powerful guitar solo which seems to release some anger he has built up inside (my two cents). If it doesn’t make KZbin, you owe it to yourselves to listen to it on your own!

[@jjr007]

YES! this is their best!

[@bobbyowen5879]

The Confessor is a killer tune.

[@JohnAlbertRigali]

"The Confessor" is far and away Mr. Walsh's best composition. His guitar solo in it is one of my top 10 favorite guitar solos/duets/triads of all time - I get an ASMR reaction almost every time I hear it. I strongly recommend it for every AOR fan.

[@lantose]

@@JohnAlbertRigali Thanks for chiming in John as a number of folks have never heard this song, and like yourself, I also agree to one of my all time favorite solos because it’s so heavy and powerful and fits the feelings of the song so well!

Awesome- throw in "Needle and the Spoon"

[@roycevannorman6632]

What I love about the lyrics to this song is that EVERY other song, particularly southern rock or country, is about how much of a badass I am. "Don't mess with me. I'll kick your ass. etc.".... This song is the opposite. Screw that... "Just give me 3 steps towards the door and I'm out" lol

[@jbellinger99]

great song

[@AdamMcGahan]

I think _Tuesday's Gone_ and _Simple Man_ are close. _Tuesday's Gone_ is probably the better composition, but it's wistful in a way that feels like it dilutes its emotional impact. _Simple Man_ is pretty consistent in how it mixes a little darkness, maybe even a little dread, into its wisdom. Given the choice between the two for a desert island disk, I think I'd pick _Simple Man_ .

Can't really think of a bad Skynyrd song (pre-crash, that is), and no way I could pick one favorite. I had never really considered Freebird "the best Lynyrd Skynyrd song ever" as some do, though it's a great song with one of the greatest solos ever (same goes for Stairway to Heaven).

So I am glad you all went back to Skynyrd. What you experienced was the difference in the band after Steve Gaines joined. They all said they were getting stagnant and needed something new. Along came Steve Gaines. If you want to enjoy more of his influence I would suggest 'You got that Right' where Ronny and Steve share vocals or 'I know a Little' which Ronnie and Steve changed from the original that Steve did with his band Crawdad.

Not even close for me, Simple Man has the best sound and great leads that are not as manic as Free Bird but for 9 out of 10 times when I get an itch for just one of their songs, it is Simple Man.

Nobody is a fan of the Fed. :)

[@Straydogger]

I Know A Little, You Got That Right, What's Your Name and Call Me The Breeze are on my best list.

[@lisalovemc717]

Try Tuesday's Gone. Excellent song. Call me the Breeze or That Smell are my fave Skynrd songs.

[@crazylegslife]

Saturday night special.... way better than freebird imo

[@jgsrhythm100]

Best Skynrd song? This is a typical Skynrd song. They have dozens easily as good .

[@Frankincensedjb123]

These guys were the real deal. They were drinkin' playin' fightin' men of the south. What they sang about they lived. Those early albums rarely missed, and this is another one that was right on target. If you play guitar, this is great fun to play.

And just like that the “What did you think it was about” segment was born. 😂

I’ve watched a bunch of your videos and now a subscriber. But As much as you guys appreciate music, I find it very hard to believe you haven’t heard any of these iconic songs.

One More Time is my favorite. Criminally underrated.

[@LaserRanger15]

Call Me the Breeze, Gimme Back My Bullets, I Know a Little....would be my top 3 of theirs

[@hampton2108]

React to “Call Me the Breeze” if only for the piano solo...also “On the Hunt”, sickest riff ever!
